Anglers and water enthusiasts will find lake access at Willard L. Meyer Recreation Area, a county-managed campground in western Nebraska. The facility accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with electric hookups available at developed sites, while primitive camping spots sit directly on the lake shoreline.
Charles C. noted electric hookups, picnic tables, and fire pits at RV sites for $10 per night, along with a boat ramp and dock for lake access. The campground includes a beach area and allows pets throughout the grounds. Recent visitor feedback indicates maintenance challenges, with one long-time camper reporting issues with cleanliness and enforcement. Bird hunting occurs in the surrounding area during season. For additional camping choices, consider camping near Fairbury about 20 miles south.
